Chapter 1141 Battle of Qingshiyan (4)

September 11th!

Qingshiyan is still buzzing with gunfire!

The Si Xing Tuan Dakouzi Town resident is also holding a special meeting.

However, there were many people attending the meeting, and all the technicians from the arsenal, the skilled workers trained in the past six months, and all the militia troops except the police were all present.

As the highest-ranking military officers currently stationed in the Four Lines Regiment, Lao Tantai and Teacher Xiao He were both standing on the high platform at the main training ground of the Four Lines Regiment. Next to them were the arsenal guard platoon leader and several people who were leaning on crutches but were loaded with guns and murderous intent.

Teng Teng veteran.

"Dear colleagues and brothers, the news coming from the front line is very bad. The total strength of the Japanese invaders gathered on our front line has reached nearly 10,000 people, but the total strength of our 4th Battalion is only 1,400 people. This is the total strength of the 4th Battalion Shangguan Yun.

The telegram sent to me and Director He a few hours ago..." Lao Tantai unfolded the telegram sent by Shangguan Yun and read it softly in front of the microphone.

Two loudspeakers set up on the training ground played Shangguan Yun's farewell message. The more than 1,300 people in the entire training ground first became restless, and then fell silent under the pressure of the sharp eyes of the veterans in the team.

The lieutenant platoon leader standing on the stage had a bitter look on his face.

With such a group of people, what can Tantai Yunshu and Teacher Xiao He expect from them? But what can he accuse them of?

Of these 1,300 people, more than 200 were the proud sons of God who was spending their youth wantonly on the university campus a year ago. Their most powerful battles were not on the court, but in sweat; and more than 400 of them were in the arsenal through boss Qian.

They recruited skilled workers from Shaanxi Province from Henan Province; the other 700 are still farmers wielding hoes and hatchets.

At the critical moment when the Japanese army was approaching and about to destroy everything, they were only a little restless and did not take any other drastic actions, which was already quite good.

However, it may be difficult to rely on these people for the thing that Teacher Xiao He advocates!

But that doesn't matter, as long as soldiers like myself have the opportunity to sleep together with our comrades, it won't be too regretful.

Seeing the restless and disappointed people in the audience, the eyes of the lieutenant platoon leader returned to firmness.

"Now, there are two ways before us. One is to move all the equipment and materials that can be moved within four days and nights as battalion commander Shangguan Yun said, and to blow up those that we cannot take away.

"If you take the second route..." Tantai Yunshu's face was extremely serious.

"Sir Tantai, what do you think the second route is? Time waits for no one! Just don't set up the dragon gate formation." A disabled veteran from Sichuan in the crowd was obviously impatient and shouted.

"This second way was proposed by Director He, let Director He say it!" Tantai Yunshu took a step back and handed the microphone to Teacher Xiao He, whose round face was full of determination.

"Dear classmates, brother workers, and comrades-in-arms, I am He Zehui. I was born in Suzhou and studied at Yenching University. When I was a student, I made a wish to design the most powerful weapons to protect our country from the future.

Being bullied by foreigners.

To this end, I applied to the mechanical department of the top university in the German Empire and had the best tutors. However, the war has burned my motherland and the path to study has been cut off. I once thought that my ideal was dead, but I am very fortunate.

Let me meet the Four Elements Group.

Here, although I have not been able to design the most powerful weapons as I dreamed of when I was young. The firearms and ammunition I designed are just machine guns, rifles, pistols and even small bullets, but I am still happy.

Especially when I saw the yellow and orange bullets packed in boxes and transported to the barracks from the production workshop of our factory, I knew that every bullet could kill the Japanese invaders, and they would bleed and die.

This is what I, a so-called scientific researcher, have to do, and this is what all of you here are doing. Although we cannot shed our lives and blood like the Chinese soldiers on the front line, it is still of great significance.

We are ordinary, but many years later our descendants will know that there is a group of people like us deep in such a mountain, and they will also pay high respect to us who do not know our names." Teacher Xiao He stared at his students.

and the workers, speaking affectionately in slightly thin voices.

"Director He, will people in the future know about us?" a young worker asked involuntarily.

"Haha! Of course you will know, because China will definitely win this great Patriotic War, because we in China have officers and soldiers like our Fourth Corps who are not stingy at sacrifice, and we also have technicians like us who work more than 16 hours a day.

Your bed is next to the production equipment, your dining table is at the door of the workshop, and your sweat is dripping on the operating table. All these will not be forgotten by the Chinese people in the future. Believe it or not, as long as you live in the future,

In more than ten years, our Yadong Arsenal may become a memorial hall, and it will have the names of each of our people who have worked here." Teacher Xiao He answered firmly.

"That's great, but it's a pity that we have to evacuate. The Japanese will probably blow up the cave." The young worker's eyes were full of hope, but then his eyes became dark.

Everyone here knows very well that with their current manpower and material resources, it is almost impossible to move a dozen precision machine tools, dozens of various mechanical processing equipment, and various materials with a total weight of thousands of tons within four days.

Don't even think about it. Besides, there are several factories in Zhengcheng that have invested in the construction of clothing, gray ash and other factory equipment. It is almost an impossible task.

The various factories, dormitories, and some equipment and materials that took half a year of hard work to build were destined to be bombed.

From then on, the Sixings Regiment Arsenal and several factories, large and small, were not only impoverished, but their vitality was also severely damaged. I don’t know when it will be possible to regain their vitality.

"We still have a chance, this is the second way I mentioned!" Teacher Xiao He's big round eyes suddenly burst into a frightening light.

"This war belongs to all Chinese people, not just Chinese soldiers. They do not hesitate to sacrifice or shed blood. Can we only live under the high wall they have built with their blood and lives?

At this critical moment, as Chinese, we can also run to the battlefield with our heads held high, stand in a trench with them, and tell them, brother, I'm here!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was silent!

At this moment, the second path chosen by Teacher Xiao He has become obvious. She advocates not retreating but advancing. Everyone here should put their guns on their backs and rush to the front line!

But can they?

Although they also have military training two afternoons a week, 90% of them have never experienced a battlefield. When the gunshots sound and the blood blooms on the bodies of their comrades around them, will they be frightened?

Pee your pants?

Not to mention that the thousands of people present would doubt themselves about this, even Tantai Yunshu and the lieutenant platoon leader were extremely doubtful, so they both had reservations and finally chose to let Teacher Xiao He do the mobilization in person.

What finally made them make this decision was Teacher Xiao He's words that moved them both.

"Leave the choice to themselves, there is often only a thin line between bravery and cowardice!" Teacher Xiao He said firmly.

"Of course, the reason why I proposed this second way is not just because I hope that we can keep our own glory, but because we actually have no way out. The return of the main force will be at least ten days later, and the 4th Battalion sacrificed all

The lives of 1,400 people can only be saved for 4 to 5 days. How far can we run in the mountains carrying all kinds of heavy equipment?

Also, there are so many military relatives and villagers in Dakouzi Town. Even if some people can escape, all the houses and daily necessities will be burned by the Japanese. How will tens of thousands of people survive this cold winter?

Retreating will only save all of us here and less than half of the folks in Dakouzidong Town. If we muster the courage to fight hard, many of us here may lose our lives, but we can definitely save the lives and livelihoods of more people.

Necessary supplies!" Teacher Xiao He continued.

"But Director He, are we just going to fight the Japanese with rifles?" A young militiaman raised his old-fashioned rifle with some anxiety.

The militiamen distributed mostly Hanyang-made and Type 38 rifles, which are also commonly used firearms for their daily training.

"Little brother, don't forget, there is a director of the arsenal here, and there is also the director of the Ordnance Department of the Fourth Army Regiment. The inventory of the arms warehouse of my Fourth Army Regiment can make even German armorers drool with envy."

Teacher Xiao He smiled.

"Teacher Tantai said that Tang Tuanzuo and Company Commander Tantai chose to go to the battlefield. That is their military duty. And most of the people here are not soldiers. He has no right to issue military orders to you, he can only request! Then

Teacher Tantai, Lieutenant Chu Shaoyun, and I, the temporary headquarters, are making a request to all of you here, asking some brave people among you to join us and go to the front line to support our brothers!" In Teacher Xiao He's big eyes,

With tears streaming down her face, she bowed deeply on the stage.

"Those who are willing to wait with me, stand on the left side of the training ground and come closer to me!" The lieutenant platoon leader strode forward and jumped off the stage with a loud sound like a bell.

"Haha! Don't worry, brother Shaoyun, I'm here! I can finally go to the battlefield again. I'm so excited that I'm blinded." A veteran who was missing an entire arm walked out of the queue.

First, he saluted Lao Tantai and Teacher Xiao He on the stage with his remaining arm, then ran all the way and stood up straight in front of the lieutenant platoon leader.

"Young Lao Lan, can you run fast just because you have two legs?" Several veterans on crutches walked out of the team.

Salute and return to the team!

In less than a minute, more than 90 veterans gathered in front of the lieutenant platoon leader. None of them was intact, either missing an arm or a leg.

There was even one who lost both forearms, leaving only two bare arms!

"Old Long, you are so stupid that you have no arms and can't even fire a gun. You're here to join in the excitement of a ball game. Hurry up and get out of here with those little bastards. You might still have a chance to help me collect corpses and burn paper or something." A veteran said.

Cursed.

"Get off your grandma's lap. I can't shoot, but I can't carry a bullet box and pull an explosive pack or something like that? You bastards, believe it or not, I tied two explosive packs one after the other, pulled the grenade string, and brought

There are more little devils leaving than all of you put together." The old soldier with a broken arm glared, revealing his big yellow teeth.

There were two unscrewed grenades strapped to his shoulders near his neck. The fuses were right next to his mouth. He could bite them by tilting his head.

If two more explosive packets are hung, it will really be a large bomb comparable to a heavy artillery!

"You are such a bitch, why don't you live to beg for a guest, have a few more babies, and watch them grow up?" A veteran must also be his old comrade-in-arms. Seeing the old comrade-in-arms being so determined, he couldn't help but choke up in his throat.

.

In fact, the pensions provided by the Four Lines Group to these disabled veterans are not low. In addition to bonuses for killing enemies, each veteran here has at least 200 oceans on hand. With this money, regardless of disability, he can go back to his hometown to ask for help.

It’s not difficult to be a wife.

"Hey, you bastards, do you know those petty things? Don't you just want me to burn paper for you and pour some wine during the holidays? I won't do such stupid things. You are all dead. I am alone.

If we can't take care of him, let's go downstairs to meet the Lord of Hell for a drink!" The veteran grinned happily.

"You're right to say that! Let's do it together!" The veterans were also very open-minded and laughed.

"Teacher, as the saying goes, once you are a teacher, you will always be a father! How can you disobey your parents' orders? Here we come!" Fang Shiheng, the former vice chairman of the Jinling University Student Union on the other side of the technician queue, stood in front of the team and first said to his

Two teachers gave a military salute.

After the battle outside Jinling, Fang Shiheng, who witnessed the cruelty of the war, was no longer the kind of proud man who lived in his imagination. He became much more pragmatic. His growth was also noticed by Tang Dao, and he gradually entrusted him to

He already holds the important position of chief of the personnel and publicity section in the arsenal, which is second only to the deputy director.

At such a moment of decision, this proud man of heaven did not live up to the trust of his two teachers and Tang Dao. After performing the military salute, he turned back and ordered loudly: "Students, comrades, and brothers, turn left and walk in unison.

!”

The technicians queued up, turned left, and strode forward!

After nearly half a year of military career, these proud men have already acquired the appearance of soldiers, including determination!

There were only a few technicians left on the field who were stunned and helpless!

After all, not everyone can be so brave at this moment of deciding their own destiny, no matter where they are.

Fang Shiheng turned around and saw this scene. He sighed slightly, but said nothing more. He continued to lead his classmates and comrades forward firmly until he reached the queue of veterans and stopped for a moment!

"Teacher, I'm sorry! But I am really scared. I was very scared when I was shooting!" A girl said with a strong cry to Teacher Xiao He who walked down the platform.

"You guys, don't be ashamed. This is not your responsibility. Pack your personal belongings and try to evacuate as many villagers as possible!" Teacher Xiao He softly comforted the students who stayed behind.

"Damn, we're dead, how can we big brothers watch our little brothers and sisters risk their lives to fight for our lives? Brothers, let's go and have a taste of what it's like to kill the Japanese."

A strong man from Henan Province roared loudly.

This man must have some appeal, and workers numbered 20 or so followed him to the left.

"We can't let the people from Henan Province take the limelight! These little devils are almost reaching the Yellow River. The Taihang Mountains must be defended. People from Guanzhong are not cowards!" Nearly fifty people walked out of the worker queue.

The workers in the arsenal are basically divided into three parts. Most of them are in Henan, Shaanxi, and Shanxi provinces. They are naturally divided into small hills according to their hometowns. Now seeing that Henan Province has taken the lead, workers in the other two provinces are also anxious.

Yes, they are just peddlers, uneducated and poorly educated, but the traditional Chinese culture is actually deeply ingrained!

Death is a small thing, and you can't lose the face of your hometown, otherwise you won't be able to live in the future.

Including the stimulated militiamen, it took about five minutes. In the end, the number of people standing in front of Lieutenant Platoon Leader Chu Shaoyun was as high as 1,200, accounting for 80% of the number of people present.

This number exceeded the expectations of the three people in the temporary headquarters. They originally thought that half of it would be good.

Perhaps, it is not only the veterans and student soldiers' disregard for death that has infected them, but they are well aware of the key point that Teacher Xiao He said: "The egg will not be finished when the nest is overturned." Once the defense line is broken, Dakouzidong Town will become a human being.

Hell, the severely damaged Japanese army will not let go of any Chinese creature in this area, even a dog!

If they want their family members to live, they have to fight tooth and nail and risk their own lives!

"Okay, now that the brothers have made their own choices, I, Tantai Yunshu, can't promise you anything, but I can promise you, Director He and Lieutenant Chu, that the three of us will fight with you to the last man.

We will live, you will die, and we will die too!" Lao Tantai took the helmet handed over by the people around him, inserted the Black Star pistol into the gun pouch on his waist, and issued a military order: "Open the regiment armory and take out all the inventory of combat anti-aircraft guns.

, infantry artillery, rifle grenades, light machine guns..."

On the Qingshiyan battlefield, Kuyeda Shiro may have never dreamed that the enemy in front of him not only did not deplete his troops, but instead added 1,200 new troops after this afternoon.

What's even more terrible is that after Tantai Yunshu made a desperate move to open the arms warehouse, the Si Xing Regiment's last trump card was also forced to be revealed.

In order to ensure the mobility of the main force, and because the 12.7mm heavy machine gun and 20mm machine gun can attack tanks, the Fourth Line Regiment has all 37mm anti-tank guns in stock, up to 24 in number!

There are still 18 Japanese 70mm infantry guns that have been eliminated, 120 Czech-made ZB26 light machine guns that have been replaced, and 200 American-made Browning grenade launchers that have not been fully equipped with the entire regiment!

With these light and heavy firepower, combined with some light weapons, it is possible to build an infantry brigade, let alone arm 1,200 people.

And at this desperate moment, Lieutenant Chu Shaoyun, who was truly a military commander in the station, even made a military arrangement that Tang Dao considered crazy.
